Transfer final cut pro x movie to an other disk

I want to transfer a final cut pro x project to another  disk drive with all the files that pertain to this movie.
Then I want to delete all those files for that movie to free up disk space for another movie....

Highlight project and select File>Copy Project to Library>New Library
This will copy the project and all associated media etc. to a new Library in the place of your choice.
You could alternatively use the "Move Library ...." command which would save you needing to delete the old one  .  .  .  .  however, you may feel safer deleting it yourself after you have confirmed it has moved successfully.

  • How Can I transfer Final Cut Pro X to another computer

    How can I transfer Final Cut Pro X to another computer without connecting the two

    As Kappy said, download it from the App Store - this will give you a brand new copy. However unlikely, it's just possible you might be copying a corrupt version from the original computer.
    In the App Store, make certain you use the same Apple ID that the App was purchased with.

  • Transfer Final Cut Pro X to new desktop from laptop

    I just purchased a new iMac desktop and want to transfer Final Cut Pro X from my macbook pro to my new computer. I know the license allows for me to use the software on both my laptob and my desktop, but am unsure on how to actually implement this. I downloaded the software dirctly form the apple store online, thus do not have installation cds. Help please!

    Simply copy it across  .  .  .  .  that's all.
    You can use a hard drive, a memory stick or if they are both on a network you can send it that way.

  • Problem: Final Cut Pro X inaccurately reports "Out of disk space", when I have 333GB free.

    Problem: Final Cut Pro X inaccurately reports "Out of disk space", when I have 333GB free.
    Trying to "share" the compound clip I've created as an mp4 1080p file.

    Editing MP4 media can create all sorts of havoc with FCP.
    Convert the clips to .mov files – either Compressor or MPEG Streamclip will do that – preferably in Pro Res 422

  • Export through Final Cut Pro of .mov file results in non-viewable file...

    Hello,
    I recently worked on a film and had asked for a .mov version of the movie so I could get an uncompressed HD version in case I wished to use it for my demo reel (video for actors).
    I was present when the director exported it and he exported it from Final Cut Pro (the latest version) and he exported it as a .mov file.
    Well, I just tried opening the video and it does not work. In Quicktime, the error message:
    "The movie "movie.mov" can't be opened.
    You may need to install additional software to open this type of file.
    I'm thinking it might be a codec issue.
    Do you have any suggestions as to how the movie should be exported so that I avoid this type of error message?
    I tried opening the file in iTunes and I got the audio, but the video was black. Another clue that it's a codec issue.
    I just need a high quality (as uncompressed as possible) file that I can then add to an editing program and insert into my demo reel. I need the high definition format to be retained.
    As for the frame-rate, etc. I'm not sure. It was done with high quality and expensive video equipment and didn't use tape. I know it was high definition and widescreen as well.

    Nope, I don't have Final Cut Pro on my system.
    I clicked on Get Info and nothing about the codec appears.
    "Kind: QuickTime movie"
    "Size: 1.99 GB on disc" (it is about 6 minutes long; that I remember)
    "Title: movie.mov"
    "Last Opened" is the next and last thing that appears.
    I tried opening it using VLC and the movie just stops and starts throughout. It plays for just a second and then stops and I have to keep clicking the "Play" button to get it to keep playing.
    Actually, just now I tried it again in VLC and it just kept stuttering.
    From VLC, I chose Media Information and under Codec Details, the following appeared:
    Stream 0:
    Type: Video
    Codec: MPEG-1/2 Video (xdvd)
    Language: English
    Resolution: 1920x1080
    Frame rate: 23.976000
    Stream 1:
    Type: Audio
    Codec: PCM S16 LE (sowt)
    Language: English
    Channels: Stereo
    Sample Rate: 48000 Hz
    Bits per sample: 16
    Should I ask that the movie be re-exported using the ProRes codec???

  • Can you transfer final cut pro x to another computer with the same apple account?

    I want to get Final Cut Pro X right away so I can start editing videos for my youtube channel, but I'm am also planning to get a Macbook Pro for school this year. Is it possible for me to buy & use Final Cut Pro X on my current macbook now, and then later copy and/or transfer the application to my new computer? Both computers would be run by the same apple account. Thanks! Please reply.

    Hello There,
    I'm not sure of how many in total you can have, but you can have FCPX on both your computers you just can't use them at the same time.

  • Why is Final Cut Pro taking up so much "Other" space?

    I have an iMac 2010, and I just bought Final Cut Pro X and I love it. It brings a nice professional touch to my youtube videos. Yet today my computer wouldn't let me import new footage. I assumed it was my storage so I went to check it out. I have normal amounts of my storage being used, like 22 GB for apps and 29 GB for Photos, which is all fine since I have a Terabyte drive. Yet 815 GB is used up by Other! I know other is a category apple made for things that fall under other categories than the ones they made. Yet I believe that this is either a virus, or that my Final Cut Pro X is using up all the memory by making and processing videos. What can I do to free up this space? Do you think that it is Final Cut Pro that is taking up my memory? (I think the increase in memory usage and Final Cut Pro imports are correlated.)

    If you have 10.1 or higher, in column view in the Finder, locate your libraries right click>Get Info to see the size,
    My guess is you're creating and keeping Optimized media and your render files. Both can be trashed from within the application.

  • Transfer Final Cut Pro X events and projects to external hd

    Hey guys!
    Can you help me transfer my final cut events and projects to a external hard drive cause my hd is full

    ok... i was thinking if the project looked for the media like
    ->user->final cut event->event->(wanted clip_
    or if i grabbed both the event and project folders and moved them to my external hard drive which when you have final cut open it will see...
    so i grab the two final cut folders in finder move them and then open final cut will final cut not kno what is going on?
    because if final cut just looks for the event in
    final cut events/event/(wanted clip)
    instead of its original location (like windows would)
    mac/user/movies/final cut event/event/(wanted clip)
    then that would work?
    it should work... does that makes sense? haha

  • How can I transfer Final Cut Pro 7 projects into Adobe Premiere?

    I produced a whole whack of videos in FCP7. Then I got a new Apple Quad Core Intel Mac about a year ago... To find that FCP7 was no longer even usable. I still have FCP 7 on my Intel Core 2 Duo Apple Powerbook. I've read that I can export FCP7 XML files and import them into Premiere, but when I do this Premiere just crashes. This is a major pain in the AS%. Can anybody help me here?? What is the most elegant simple solution that will allow me to get back to work, on my new computer, using the FCP 7 material? Thanks

    You need the Final Cut Studio forum.
    This is just for FCP X.

  • Final Cut Pro 5.1 upgrade with FCS2 disks

    I have Final Cut 5.1 installed, but I uninstalled the rest of the Final Cut studio applications, I purchased the FCS2 upgrade and am wanting to know if the disks will upgrade Final Cut without me having the rest of the applications installed, or will I need to reinstall the full studio package to take advantage of the new Final Cut and Color.

    The answer to your question is, without regard to opinions on what's a good or bad idea, the entire suite is on the disks. You can load them on a clean unused hard drive or over your present drive which contains some or all of the earlier programs.
    A search of these forums will probably result in much advice saying do a clean install... that is totally erase your hard drive, reinstall OSX 10.4.10 and then install FCS2. Not everyone believes that is an absolute necessity and the choice is yours.
    You will find that FCS2 (Final Cut6) will not interface well with earlier versions of Compressor, Motion, etc.. If in fact, it will work with them at all. It is best to install all of FCS2, upgrading every element of the suite, then deleting any of the various programs you do not wish to use. But don't be too quick on the trigger... try them, you'll like many of them and wonder how you got along without them in the past.

  • A conclusion to ALL the AVCHD/.mts Log and Transfer Final Cut Pro 7 issues

    Hey all! Happy 2011!
    So this is my first post here and hopefully when this thread concludes with all your help we should be able to help a lot of people and save them the heartache that I have recently had to endure by stating these things in plain English. I have some questions at the end which I think could be answered very easily! Please, no gobbledygook!
    It would be great if people in the know can confirm/deny or comment on my points so those that are in a similar position to me can save their time and just get on with it.
    1) I have a Panasonic HDC-TM300 and it records in AVCHD/.mts files
    2) FCP 7 can deal with AVCHD files via the Log and Transfer feature if you do it straight from the camera or memory card and can convert to ProRes 422 (LT)?
    3) Log and Transfer _*DOES NOT WORK*_ if you move the AVCHD/.mts to an external drive without maintaining the folder structure?
    4) What is required from the folder structure that makes FCP act this way?
    5) Basically I have f*ed it by doing the part 3 above which I think is the most natural thing in the world to do! Im sure that many people have done the same thing as me please correct me if i’m wrong
    After a lot of research on the internet I have come up with the following solutions and in brackets my thoughts on them. If anyone has any experience with them please please let me and other people know so I can get on with my life and editing these files.
    a) Harass the people that make FCP 7.0 and make sure that the next update solves this stupid/idiotic/ridiculous oversight. (This could take a while but i think we should do it for the sake of future generations)
    b) Someone could let us know about a workaround to this that may be the folder structure that FCP needs to be able to do L&T (needs to be simple so that everyone can do it. This would be the best short term solution until part a is completed)
    c) Buy one of the converter programs such as ClipWrap, Toast Titanium or Aunsoft mts converter. If so which is the most/ least recommended and why? (Least desirable option due to requirement for extra program so extra faffing and extra cost).
    Thanks y’all and keep up the awesome work!!

    2) FCP 7 can deal with AVCHD files via the Log and Transfer feature if you do it straight from the camera or memory card and can convert to ProRes 422 (LT)?
    Yes.
    3) Log and Transfer DOES NOT WORK if you move the AVCHD/.mts to an external drive without maintaining the folder structure?
    This is true of ANY tapeless format.
    4) What is required from the folder structure that makes FCP act this way?
    This is due to the fact that most of them have files in those other folders in that structure that FCP needs to access in order to get all the proper components assembled properly. Sure, there are formats that have folders with nothing in them. Doesn't matter, FCP is designed to look at the full structure and work from that.
    5) Basically I have f*ed it by doing the part 3 above which I think is the most natural thing in the world to do!
    The most natural thing in the world is to NOT backup everything? Well, that might be the case, since this comes up so darn often. But, it is wrong. The full structure must be maintained. This is true of many tapeless formats and more than just FCP. Avid and Premiere need this for certain tapeless formats too.
    a) Harass the people that make FCP 7.0 and make sure that the next update solves this stupid/idiotic/ridiculous oversight.
    It isn't an oversight. It is designed like this on purpose. You need to learn how to do things right. You obviously know what that is now...keep the full card structure. So now it is up to you to continue to do things properly. Instead of insisting that an NLE conform the way it works to suit your needs.
    b) Someone could let us know about a workaround to this that may be the folder structure that FCP needs to be able to do L&T (needs to be simple so that everyone can do it. This would be the best short term solution until part a is completed)
    Easy. Shoot a small bit on another card. Look at the folder structure. Recreate that structure in your backed up footage. Often this will mean making folders with exact names, even if they are empty. But if they have files in them, even small ones, then the first backup you did might not work....because those might be some of the small files FCP needs in order to do the L&T process properly. Always worth trying though.
    c) Buy one of the converter programs such as ClipWrap, Toast Titanium or Aunsoft mts converter. If so which is the most/ least recommended and why?
    I highly recommend Clipwrap. Mainly because I haven't tried the others. But also because the author is always following the latest formats, and works hard to make sure his software works with them. It solved an importing issue I had with the Sony NXCam camera...within a week of me moaning about the issue.
    Want a tutorial to walk you through the tapeless workflow in FCP? I have one. Tapeless Workflow for FCP 7 Tutorial You might know most of this, but watch it for other tips.

  • Final Cut Pro x movie WAY TOO big! Help!

    I have a 2009 MacBook Pro, OX 10.8.3, Mountain Lion - 8 GB Ram, 120 GB SSD, and I created a video which is 36 mins. long.  I want to be able to burn this video/movie onto a 4.7GB dvd-r, but the video is 27GB!!!! (and that's with a .mov extension).  It's only the video - I have no other files. 
    How do I reduce this size from something so big to something so small...oR...how can I share this size movie with others??
    Thank you!

    Sounds like you tried to create a data DVD.
    iDVD isn't at all fazed by a 27 GB movie that's 36 minutes long.
    But give it a  27GB file that is 2 hours and 1 minute long, it will complain and want you to change the media from single layer to dual layer.
